Android Auto and Texts

Skeld · October 15, 2022

In my 2022 that I just picked up, I notice that I get zero notification of texts when I'm not in the Android Auto screen. Every time you start the truck you have to manually select the Android Auto icon. That part works fine. But I'm told that with CarPlay you still get text notifications if you're on the native Nav or Radio App. It would be nice to not be stuck in Android

Auto 24/7. Is that just how Android Auto is or does my truck need an update or something like that?

That's a setting in the Chevrolet UI or in Android Auto?

My last truck was a 2019 Silverado LD/LT. It would always notify me when text messages came in and would play them aloud as well. My current truck (2023 Silverado LT) says I need an internet connection in order to hear my text messages aloud. What a bunch of crap! I have tried everything in the settings and nothing has helped. Is this the bottom line?? (I have an android phone, Samsung S23+)

My 2020 won't give me any notification of any kind. I do get phone calls. Unless I'm using the phone as a source for playing music and such. So I'm I looking in setting for this to turn on or pick?
